Inner Roadmap of Job

Neville's Inner Vision

In this passage the 'heart of the chief' stands for the center of your decisions and feelings. When that inner authority is withdrawn or neglected, you wander a wilderness of thoughts without direction, grope in darkness, and stagger. Yet the scene is not punishment from without but a cue to recognize that you, as the I AM, are the true ruler of your consciousness. By identifying with the external upheaval, you suspend your inner sovereignty; by reclaiming the inner I AM you restore light to your path. Your circumstances become a mirror of your inner state: reclaim leadership, and the wilderness becomes a map of inner exploration. The exile and return are shifts of awareness, not fortune. This is about accountability and Providence—your inner governor guiding you back to wholeness as you choose to inhabit the feeling that you are led by a wise, intimate presence. When you awaken to this inner rule, the darkness dissolves into clarity and purpose.
